-3— <br />Jake stated that at the Pike Lake Building, they have ash trays out. He stated, if you don't want <br />people to smoke, you shouldn't provide ash trays. <br />• Tandeski mentioned that the School District has now arranged for the adult smokers to smoke on <br />the other side of their building so they are not seen smoking on the park side. <br />Harreld commented she agrees with Norton to bring this back, maybe in May. Harreld felt, <br />maybe wait until June. <br />Trevorrow felt May would be a good time to do it, just put it on as an open item. <br />Samuelson too liked the idea of having an update. <br />Schricker felt waiting until June may be better because there may not be much activity going on <br />because of the weather. <br />The Commission agreed that the Public Comment forum works very well. <br />Officer Hamdorf suggested it be an update from Sandy, or whomever she would delegate. <br />Someone would give an update on the skate park. <br />Breuer summarized that the Commission would like to revisit this again on June 2, 2010 with an <br />update on the skate park from herself, or Officer Hamdorf, youth can be invited as well as the <br />community and public comment could be received. <br />MOTION BY HARRELD, SECONDED BY NORTON, THAT WE RECOMMEND TO <br />COUNCIL THAT WE CONTINUE THE SKATEBOARD PARK AS IS.

Council Report — Council Member Mary Burg <br />Burg stated last time they talked about the trail up at South Park at the NWQ and <br />changing the bike trail to a different width. We came to a consensus that we <br />would add a 12 ft bike trail just on the very south end of the hill that winds <br />underneath the railroad bridge. It is pretty steep and it is a safety issue. <br />Burg stated she did remind the Council of the Northwest Quadrant Parks Strategic <br />Plan. <br />League of Minnesota Cities has a forum on emerald ash borer and opportunities <br />for grants. <br />Cable Commission is tomorrow. Topic of discussion is not what she thought it <br />would be. <br />0 Harreld asked about whether the City will be hiring a forester. <br />
